The Fuchshofschule in Ludwigsburg’s west is spatially designed to provide an appropriate place of learning and shared exchange for various large parts of the school community.

The modules were produced in Austria, transported to Ludwigsburg and installed on site within five working days. The shingling with white Eternit plates does not reveal that this is a wooden building. The surfaces in the interior remain visible in their inherent construction and thus provoke a special atmosphere. Continue reading VON M
